Really excellent, and I'll be sad to see this one ending, but I also am happy to have my number of play-by-posts reducing by one, because I take on too many games all the time. LOL
Thanks so much for running, Thunderspirit!

"So many treasures... worth the fight, I think. Kinn, my friend, you were a fiend, and I mean that in the best way possible. Well done."
Endar's eyes go wide at the vicious bite that the dragon just laid into Kinn. Hoping to draw the dragon to a place where it can be flanked, Endar stabs at it once again, then dances backward.
That's better. As he jumps back, he motions for Compy to move away in the other direction, and Compy obliges.
GM: I love stupid ideas, including that one. That may well happen. LOL
Seeing Kinn successfully attack the dragon, Endar is emboldened to try to do the same. Compy follows him, growling at the dragon, but has no way to reach it at the moment.
Endar feeds Compy the potion of magic fang he was holding, then the two of them move forward into the cavern.
"Alas, we seem to have used much of our items. Let's find the dragon quickly, so that we do not run our magic out, yes?" Endar follows along into the grioth chamber.
Endar puts ont he cloak, then chugs his potion of Barkskin. He readies the oil of magic fang to apply it to Compy the moment they see the dragon's lair.
Endar follows along, no buffs to cast on himself, though he does have Compy turn big.
Sounds good, it's a good time to take the break since we all just leveled up. Happy holidays, everyone!
I'll be disappearing at least partially from Friday the 21st through the 26th. I'll be back on the 27th and shouldn't have any other major interruptions through the New Year's holiday weekend.
Compy, finally back at full strength, stretches and readies himself to get big n' bad.
Endar steps to the side per the earlier request, then tries again.
Endar swings ONCE MORE at the stupid creature.
Endar swings his scimitar at the thing again.
Now that he's no longer confused, Endar stops hitting himself in the head and hits the badguys instead. He moves forward and swings at the big thingy in the middle of the room.
Endar swings his scimitar at it.
"I don't recognize it either. It looks like it might be good to just hack apart, though, don't you think?" Endar decides to use his scimitar for this battle, as anything that looks like a tree might require some slashing damage. He moves forward, drawing the sword, and flanks with Mordenaar before attacking, weilding it two-handed.
Endar looks over the book for traps.
if he finds one, he attempts to disable it.
FYI I'll be out of town starting later today until Sunday evening for PAX Unplugged, and I don't foresee myself updating my games during the con. Please feel free to bot Endar as needed. I will probably continue to keep Compy out of combat so that he doesn't die again before we get his negative levels healed up.
"No complaint from me." Endar says, and settles down to chew on some dried meat and brittle cheese.
"Boy, I do wish Compy was back at full strength before we take on a damned dragon. Oh well..." Endar is ready to move forward to fight a dragon.
After skewering the grioths, Endar looks around and admires the room. "Beautiful. What do you think, Compy?"
Endar follows along, fully expecting something horrible to jump out at them once again.
"This doesn't seem foreboding at all..." Endar says, gripping his pike as he enters the room.
"I don't trust magic items if we aren't sure what they do. Put them in a pocket and don't pull them out til we get someone to look at them."
Congrats, Achmed! Have a great honeymoon!
"That was not fun. Remind me to stay away from oozes in the future." He helps Mordenaar search.
Endar moves to defend his friend the blob against his allies, with Compy scrabbling at him from his shoulder to try to snap him out of it. As he's about to lash out at Kinn, he seems to hesitate. He breaks himself free of the creature's control!
Endar can feel his brains being sapped, but he endures the hit better than expected. Unfortunately he's still under the thing's spell.
"Hooboy, an ooze. This won't be fun. " He steps back, pulls out a potion of barkskin he'd been holding onto, and chugs it.
"Not good." Endar says, panicking slightly. "Here goes nothing!" He runs forward, drawing his magical scimitar, and swings it at the shadowy being.
The best Endar can hope for is to distract the thing long enough for his more magical colleagues to wake up.
"Well played, good sir!" Endar says gleefully, as he flies across, the first magical flying he's ever experienced.
Endar continues following along, also not interested in the Iroran aspirant's path. "This is kinda... boring." he remarks, instantly dooming the party to death by something definitely not boring.
"A rest for Compy and I wouldn't be too bad of an idea." Endar sits down next to Kinn, watching his artful sharpening of his blade while eating a bit of jerky and feeding some to Compy.
"This emissary of the Dawnflower speaks the truth. We are prepared to take on this task, and do not wish to fight you if it needn't be necessary, if only to save all of our resources for the true task at hand. Rest assured, we would have no problems defeating you, but why would we deprive you of your penance?"
"Sigh. Disgusting creatures." Endar follows his allies, and checks the trapdoor quickly before Mordenaar dares open it.
Endar moves toward the remaining grioth and stabs at it.
Endar will step back and ready an attack with his pike on the first one that comes through the doors.
readied attack:
Endar follows closely behind Kinn, ready to poke things if needed.
Endar snaps out of his fascination, looking around confused. "Did we win?"
Endar and his pet are fascinated by the display.
Endar moves up and stands ready to stab at the creature if his allies are not able to cow it. readied attack if she attempts to attack any of Endar's allies:
Endar readies his pike, Compy staying in mini-form on his shoulder until he can be restored to full strength.
